CANDABA Elderly and persons with disability (PWDs) in this town received gifts of mobility assistance from Councilor Rene “RamJ” Maglanque Jr.

The neophyte councilor has been distributing various types of mobility aids to elderly and needy residents of this town.

The equipment Maglanque provides include wheelchairs, adult walkers and assistive canes.

“Marami pong mga kababayan natin na may kapansanan ang humihingi ng tulong na kahit papaano ay makabalik sila sa dati nilang pamumuhay at tayo naman po ay parating handang tumulong,” said Maglanque.

Since the start of the year, Maglanque said he had already distributed dozens of mobility aid to senior citizens and PWDs in different barangays here.

Yesterday, the councilor purchased additional supply of the mobility aid to assist more Candabeños.

“Dumating po ang mga karagdagang wheelchairs at saklay ngayong araw na ating ipapamahagi sa mga kababayan nating nangangailangan ng mga ito. Ang gusto lang po natin ay makatulong po ang mga ito sa inyong pang araw-araw na pamumuhay at sa inyong mga suliraning pangkalusugan,” Maglanque said.
